HOMEMADE VEGETARIAN CHILI

Steps:

• In a large Dutch oven or heavy-bottomed pot over medium heat, warm the olive oil until shimmering. Add the chopped onion, bell pepper, carrot, celery and 1/4 teaspoon of the salt. Stir to combine and cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are tender and the onion is translucent, about 7 to 10 minutes.
• Add the garlic, chili powder, cumin, smoked paprika and oregano. Cook until fragrant while stirring constantly, about 1 minute.
• Add the diced tomatoes and their juices, the drained black beans and pinto beans, vegetable broth and bay leaf. Stir to combine and let the mixture come to a simmer. Continue cooking, stirring occasionally and reducing heat as necessary to maintain a gentle simmer, for 30 minutes.
• Remove the chili from the heat and discard the bay leaf. For the best texture and flavor, transfer 1 1/2 cups of the chili to a blender, making sure to get some of the liquid portion. Securely fasten the lid and blend until smooth (watch out for hot steam), then pour the blended mixture back into the pot. (Or, you can blend the chili briefly with an immersion blender, or mash the chili with a potato masher until it reaches a thicker, more chili-like consistency.)
• Add the chopped cilantro, stir to combine, and then mix in the vinegar, to taste. Add salt to taste, too-I added 1/4 teaspoon more at this point. Divide the mixture into individual bowls and serve with garnishes of your choice. This chili will keep well in the refrigerator for about 4 days or you can freeze it for longer-term storage.

VEGGIE CHILI

Steps:

• Remove all the stems from the mushrooms and add them to a food processor fitted with the blade attachment. Add half of the mushroom caps, slightly breaking them up with your hands as you add them. Pulse the mushrooms until they are finely chopped. Set aside. Halve and slice the remaining mushroom caps and set aside.
• Heat a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the oil and heat until shimmering. Add the finely chopped mushrooms from the food processor and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Cook until the natural liquid from the mushrooms has released and evaporated, about 4 minutes. Add the onion, celery, bell peppers, poblano pepper, cilantro stems and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables begin to soften, 4 to 5 minutes. Add the garlic, chili powder, smoked paprika, cumin and coriander. Stir to coat until the spices are fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the diced tomatoes, crushed tomatoes, zucchini and sliced mushrooms. Stir to combine. Bring the mixture up to a boil, then turn the heat down to low. Cover and simmer for 30 minutes.
• Remove the lid from the Dutch oven and add the corn, black beans and pinto beans. Stir to combine. Continue cooking until the corn and beans are heated through, an additional 5 minutes. Season with salt.
• Ladle the chili into bowls and top with the desired toppings.
